The aim of the Princess Royal Trust Carers Centre is to provide information, advice and support to carers. The Centre is managed by a committee drawn from the membership of Central Carers Association, a voluntary organisation comprising of carers and those with an interest in carers issues. The Centre can provide information on a wide range of topics including benefits, holidays, support groups, respite care and more. They can also direct carers to appropriate help and services.
If you wish to find out more you can either contact the Centre on the above details or come into the Surgery and ask for a ‘Carers Information Pack’.
